[Heathkit] Admin Observation

[rbethman]

Duane,

    It appears that the number of Heathkit radios being dragged out of 
storage and appearing at hamfests has increased for some strange 
reason.  They were good in their time and are still good today.  Just 
maybe need a little loving.

    If I don't link up with you with the BC-610, don't fret!  I have to 
go down to Georgia for a spell.  I'll nail with my KW once I return.
